What is the next step in making yourself whole, and complete? What broken thing can only God piece back together? Sunday, Decemeber 31st God asked me to do something. It was something He had asked me to do before, and I didn’t. I knew that I had been disobedient the first time, and I was so upset with myself. Then on Sunday He asked again. This time I was obedient. It was the hardest thing I have done in a long time, because it required me to step way out of my box. And guess what, I was rejected, as I feared. When Ben and I got home, I cried for along time. I asked God to please show me why HE asked me to do something he knew was going to cause me to be rejected. Ben asked me, “Angel, which hurt more being disobedient to God, or being rejected by man.” After I prayed, I received a phone call. A friend, Katrina, said God impressed on her that today was the day that Angel had stepped through a door. And things I had been struggling with was going to fall off of me. (Interestingly enough, My pastor had also spoke that day of 2007 being the year we would begin to see doors opened.) I knew then that God asked me to do something so that I could find freedom for myself, it was a key to a door I could not open. Think of the things you could do, would do, if you did not fear what man thought of you. If that was the only thing God had done in me it would be enough. Faith Lifts asks “What keeps you from believing that God can restore the parts of your life that feel dead or broken? What is the “something more” that God may be calling you to?” In writing out your desires you want for 2007 (remember there is power in writing things down) ask God what He wants you to believe for this year. I know that this year is going to be my best one yet! [...] [...] With all the New Years Resolutions being made what do you think God is asking of you this year?

Pain often wrecks my body. Frustration abounds me as the desires of my heart lack fulfillment.  I still cling to Him through all of this. His patience with me, a wayward child, is great. My steps are small as a child learning to walk. To the world I am nothing but to Him I am everything as He sees me through with a love I cannot fathom. It is this love that drives me.
